A buddy just texted me.  Dave and Family were on his flight that just landed at LAX from LHR.  Dave and Wife in 1st.  Kids, including Violet, in Business with my buddy.  Buddy says Dave was chatting up the crew, taking selfies, acting like the generally cool dude we all expect.  Came back a few times mid-flight to check on his kids.

Met my buddy for beers today. He gave me a little souvenir he snatched as he walked off the plane.

She's 17.  Seems a bit old for a child boarding pass.

I’m halfway through Dave’s Storyteller book. It’s been great so far.

It was extremely "Dave Grohl" in all ways, IMO.  Entertaining as hell, charming, endearing, but never quite pulling the curtain all the way back to the bone.

Yep. I loved it.  His obsession with aliens was quite entertaining.

Just got back to the hotel from their Big Sky show. Rain and lightning delayed the start until 10 pm. Zero fucks given. Everlong wrapped a couple ticks before midnight.

Cool story and also kinda funny that a guy worth 9 figures won't splurge for first class seats for his kids. 

Had a buddy stay at a Cabo resort same time as Dave and his wife and said he was cool as shit, drinking margaritas poolside with them. 

 

Also this is pretty funny

Went to a show tonight and a guy ducks in front of me on his way to the bar.  I think wow, is that, and watch him.  Guy standing at the bar recognizes him and shakes his hand, bartender hands the guy a drink, no charge without acknowledging him, and then the guy ducks back in front of me.  He's two people over in front of me by himself, bobbing his head--it's dark. I can't stop staring, because it's damn strange.  People on either side of him are videoing the stage with their cell phones while Dave Grohl is standing next to them.  He leaves after a couple of songs and his drink is tapped, puts on his mask and fist bumps a lady working at the door on the way out.  I see her later when I'm leaving and ask and she confirms it was Dave.  Four people, counting me in the whole place recognized him, and two worked there. He's a part owner of the Black Cat so it's probably not a thing, but was for me and now I have a dull Dave Grohl story. No picts so didn't happen.

Got tickets yesterday for the Denver stop.  Wish they were playing Red Rocks instead of Empower Field, but I'm glad they're coming.

Black Cat in DC. Scream is playing in December.  Wonder if he'll show up then, too? 

Damn I may need to head up

Bubble burst.  Daughter's band is close with Amyl & The Sniffers and they've toured quite a bit together.  There was a tiny sliver of hope they could jump on one of these bills, but it looks to be a not-gonna-happen.  Worst part about it is that it dovetails nicely with their 7/25 tour start supporting Sleater-Kinney in Nashville.

Holy shit man...a stadium show?  That would have been amazing.

Taking my daughter and her boyfriend tomorrow!

Where are they playing?  Who's opening?  (I could look it up, I'm lazy.  Wondering if it's Amyl & The Sniffers.)
